ASRock P67 Extreme6

Zitat: + Sehr umfangreiche Ausstattung + Hohe Performance der Onboard-Komponenten, gute Gesamtperformance + Gutes UEFI-Bios + Insgesamt sehr stabil, gute Overclocking-Möglichkeiten + Normaler bis niedriger Stromverbrauch - Board-Layout (erster PCIe-Slot eingeschränkt nutzbar, Aufteilung der PCIe-Lanes)

Zitat: Maximum an Schnittstellen, dreifach PCIe-x16 und OC-Optimierung: Kaufempfehlung für Gamer.

Zitat: Pro: + Good performance + supports all LGA 1155 Intel processors + SLI and CrossFireX + excellent overclocking support + 6 USB 3.0 and 6 USB SATA 6Gbps + ASRock XFast USB speed boost + good choice of components + neat design and layout + good software bundle Cons: - Expensive - no additional brackets for additional ports - possibly wasted PCIe x1 slot

Zitat: The Extreme6 P67 board from ASRock is another well built board from their line-up with enhanced connectivity and a solid VRM implementation. Thanks to the new VRM, I was able to overclock to 4.8GHz without issues again, but it was impressive that I could reach stable status with a smaller VCore voltage, 1.255 (vs 1.265V on the Extreme4). Thanks to the lower voltage, in Prime95 the CPU has stabilized at 66 degrees Celsius (vs 68 on the Extreme4 board). The latest UEFI beta that I have used is also equipped with the screenshot feature (F12 key), which I have used during testing to take snapshots for the UEFI section of the review. I haven´t experienced any crashes during testing in the UEFI interface, but for extreme overclockers, in the GUI we also have the Boot Failure Guard option in case of trouble (system does not boot). The board is also equipped with a CMOS Reset button in the back, as a secondary system reset option. It is also necessary to mention that after an UEFI update, the saved profiles will be automatically erased, to avoid incompatibilities between the old and new UEFI versions. The mouse cursor movement issues persisted in this UEFI version too, so I had mostly used the keyboard for navigating inside the interface, which is as easy as using an older BIOS. The board preserves the same spacing between the PCI-Express x16 slots as the Extreme4, to permit cards with large cooling systems, in Crossfire/SLI configurations, to fit. Also, like the Extreme4, the Extreme6 is shipped with an USB 3.0 Front Panel (which also has the possibility to house a 2.5´´ HDD or SSD), that can plugged right into a dedicated USB 3.0 header on the board. In the productivity benchmarks performed, the Extreme6 there was very little ahead of the Extreme4, a good thing considering that the rest of the test bench components remained the same. Price wise, the Extreme6 can be found in shops for about 155 Euros, a little more expensive than its less equipped variant, the Extreme4.
